Thu, 31 May 2012 14:15:52 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1811233C’mon. Its pretty clear Smith is saying that he’d rather be winning games than putting up big numbers. I’d bet the Panthers would feel the same way if they thought about it.

Wed, 30 May 2012 19:27:16 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1809834Why do people continue to bring Peyton Manning in this (as a reason Alex should shut his mouth). Peyton Manning is a Hall of Famer, and prolly will be better this year than 80% of the Leagues qbs ( including Alex and possibly Cam). If Alex is whining about that, the maybe his head has gotten too big for his helmet.

Really? Did YOU happen to watch that game? Alex isn’t why they lost that game. Sure, he could have done more to help the cause but he didn’t and they still should have won. I’d take Alex in that game again. Heck, let’s not forget he Did beat the Giants once last year.

Wed, 30 May 2012 18:47:24 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1809750When it comes down to it Cam Newton is a better qb than Alex Smith and if given the choice I would much rather have Cam leading my team. Alex Smith is not the reason the 9ers were so successful last season, they’re defense and Frank Gore were. As for the Carolina Panthers, I’m sure they would have a much better record if they played in the worst division in the NFL (NFC West), instead of the second toughest (NFC South).

perhaps I will start I believe in tavaris jackson.com if it weren’t for the fact that I’m not delusional and can admit that tjack sucks ass unlike every niners fan who keeps trying to convince the world that alex is an upper tier qb.

and the fact that smith was supposedly meeting with seattle were based on the fact that we didn’t want the worst qb in the league but we feared our only option may have been the second worst qb in football, your beloved game manager. and boy just think if the hawks got a qb of alexs calibur we’d prob win it all…….dorks please shut up

Wed, 30 May 2012 12:54:52 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1809081Beason doesn’t think 19 touchdowns will get you to a Superbowl, well he is wrong, ask Troy Aikman, he only threw 20 touchdowns one time in his career, and he has 3 Superbowl rings.

In fact Alex Smiths numbers this last year rivals the best years of Aikmans..why? because Aikman was too busy handing the ball off the Emmitt Smith.
The Cowboy teams that won Superbowl’s in Aikmans years were primarily running teams.

The 49ers are a running team as well.

I guarentee matt flynn puts up better numbers than alex WHICH ISNT HARD TO DO! as a lifetime seahawks fan I know a crappy qb when I see one(ex. tjax) and you got one. in flynns starts he dominated…..smith has no idea what that feels like and he NEVER WILL!

Let this be lesson to everyone who name drops, it’s not worth it. If you can answer a question from the MEDIA in an intelligent way with out mentioning your peers then just blow it off. Good luck to both squads this season.

—————————————————————

And yet your beloved Seahawks were interested in him a couple of months ago. Since when did Seahawks fans get the right to trash talk? I know it’s hard for you to understand this, but those days of Seattle barely squeezing into the playoffs due to a poor division are long gone. Enjoy your Skittles.

Tue, 29 May 2012 22:42:14 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1808319Ok, we’ve had fun with this media hyped confrontation all about nothing. Everything being said and done, I think Beason has done a commendable job with his second statement, at bringing it all to a much needed end. He polished his point, gave credit where credit was due where it came to Alex, and supported Cam, along with his team. Only this time, he didn’t attack Alex in his response, much the way Alex made his valid point without attacking Cam. And I can fully respect him for that.

The real villans here are the media members who love to antagonize a moment, instigate a situation, then sit back and sensationalize it all. Hell, certain ones were even going as far as saying too bad the two teams didn’t face each other in this year’s schedule, trying to fuel a bad-blood grudge match between the two franchises.

Wake up people and smell the coffee. Cause, they can only continue to do this if we continue blindly to get sucked into their games!

The point he was making is, regardless of who you are, you can have all the yards you want, but if it doesn’t translate to wins, who cares
==================================

The point is, Alex Smith was 19-33 before last season. He really needs to reign it in. Sam Bradford, Matt Flynn and co. could really embarrass them next year, particularly if the Moss thing blows up in their face.

———————————

In 2010 we averaged like 8 punts a game and little over 2 turnovers a game. We had 16 fumble loss and 19 INT.

The DEF ranked 18th. with the worse offense in the league.

2011 the whole DEF was injured, Beason only played 1/2 a game, 1st time he has missed any games in his career.

Tue, 29 May 2012 20:39:41 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1808074Beason needs to shut up now. Cam had 4 more Passing TDs’ than Smith and by rights Smith should have had 2 more if it weren’t for the inept officials taking away two TDs’ from the 9ers cause the Zebras were so blind they can’t tell a black shoe from white chalk on green grass.

The reality of it is Carolina’s Defense sucks, Beason was prowling the Sidelines more than he was the middle of the field and the 9er D was solid enough for the team not to expect Smith to have many big Passing days. Is Smith sposed to be ashamed of that? On top of this Carolina didn’t find their Run game til around mid season. Is Smith sposed to apologize to booty hurt players and fans that his team has a Run game too?

Didn’t Cam Newton himself suggest that he would rather have Wins over statistics?

The last I knew Football was a TEAM sport. Why everyone’s knickers in a twist over a harmlessly truthful statement is beyond me. Beason obviously knows how to read. But the comprehension level is severely lacking.

Tue, 29 May 2012 20:04:25 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1807972So Beason the “leader” of a defense that was 27th in 2011 and 26th in 2010 in the league in points allowed is calling out the “leader” of an offense that was 11th in 2011 and 24th in 2010 in points scored. Aka Alex Smith led his “crappy” offense to a more respectable ranking than Jon Beason led his defense each of the past two years. Instead of Beason comparing Newton to Smith how about we mention that Carolina was terrible b/c of the unit led by the big mouthed Beason? Carolina has had one of the 7 most scored on defenses each of the past two years. That’s a stat. If you don’t like it Beason maybe fix it!

Tue, 29 May 2012 19:44:37 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=782407#comment-1807933To all you players bashing Beason’s DEF, he was injured for 15 games, with a torn achilles. 1st time in his career that has missed a game since being drafted in 2007. We had two starting LBers out and our starting DT out. we fielded 9 different DEF units in 14 games. We didn’t have enough depth to keep up with the injuries. we were the 2nd youngest team in the league, the Tampa was the youngest.

Anyone that’s followed Smith through his career knows he’s not one to take shots at individuals, not publically anyway. The point he was making is, regardless of who you are, you can have all the yards you want, but if it doesn’t translate to wins, who cares. How many yards you pass for per game doesn’t determine a win/loss record. I bet if you ask Dan Marino if he’d trade all those records he has/had for 1 ring, he would.
